With the start of the new year comes the annual Lumberjock’s Winter Awards. A chance for woodworkers to not only compete for valuable prizes, but more importantly show off to and maybe even learn a few things from their fellow woodworking buddies.

Just one category this year:Yin Yang – the dark and the light. Where would one be without the other? Create a project that uses colour (dark and light wood, stains, etc.) to convey how contrasts work together to make the whole. When you post your project describe the Yin Yang effect that you created.

Prizes
1st place – $400 gift certificate & Bench Cookies by Rockler
10 runner-ups – Bench Cookies by Rockler
Not everyone can be “the best” but everyone do try their best. For this reason The Wood Whisperer will offer three random winners the 6-month TWW Guild membership.

You do have to be a member to join the competition, but that’s quick and easy to take care of. And don’t forget, there’s never a fee to be a Lumberjock just a love and passion for woodworking.
